About: I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have years of experience caring for pets for friends, family and neighbors. People trust me with their pets and their children because I am responsible, gentle and attentive. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they are my own. Im currently a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a consistent and flexible schedule. I'm available for dog walks between 8am and 3pm on weekdays, and I also offer overnight boarding. Being home during the day means your dog will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship. My home is a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for pets. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of fresh air. I also have one very friendly male dog who loves the company of other dogs and helps them feel comfortable. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I do have a crate available and can provide a private, quiet space if your pet prefers their own area. My goal is to make every dog feel secure, loved, and at home while they’re in my care.

“Jack was awesome with our golden retriever. He came over to meet her before our first scheduled walk and she instantly liked him. He is reliable and friendly. Will definitely use him again in the future.”

About: I’m an animal lover with two cats of my own, and I truly enjoy both cat and dog sitting. I have hands-on experience administering medication to cats and trimming their nails, and I always prioritize making animals feel safe, calm, and cared for. I work at Amazon and pursue pet sitting through Rover as a passionate side hobby. I’m available most weekends and during weekday evenings, either before or after work, to provide reliable care for your pets. I’m highly attentive to animals and always prioritize their comfort. With patience and care, I work to earn the trust of your furry friend and make sure they feel safe and happy.

“Celine has been so great and especially when having to book last minute she seems to always be able to fit us in. My dog is bigger and she does great with him. She’s super reliable and would 100% recommend her.”

“Sara is truly a gift to our family. She has been so patient, kind and loving to our new puppy. Sara is prompt, responsible and always goes out of her way to ensure our Otis is well taken care of and happy. She is the best and highly recommend her to all.”

About: Hi! I recently moved from France to San Diego and I’ve always been surrounded by animals. I grew up with dogs in a house and also had my own dog for several years while living in an apartment, so I’m comfortable with different environments and routines. I’m an active person and I love spending time outdoors, so I’d be happy to take your dog on walks, play, and make sure they get the exercise they need. I truly enjoy being around dogs and will treat yours like my own I have a flexible schedule and I’m available most weekdays, especially during the day while my wife is at work. I can easily fit pet care into my routine and make sure your dog gets the time, attention, and exercise they need. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure their dog feels safe, comfortable, and confident. I respect their routine closely, including feeding, walking, and any specific habits or needs. My goal is to provide consistent, attentive care so the dog feels relaxed and well looked after at all times.

About: I've taken care of family dogs and I've volunteered at the rescue shelter "A way home for dogs" in San Diego. The volunteering mostly involves watching and restraining dogs as we got them acclimated to crowds of people. Currently free for the summer, so I'll have plenty of time to care for pets. I have no significant other commitments throughout the week. No children or other pets in my apartment. I'll dog walk and play with them. I live in a apartment complex with a friendly pet policy.

“I booked Kat to walk my dog for the week while I was out of town. My dog has extremely high energy, and can sometimes too much for some people. Kat was amazing with him though, and I could tell he responded well to her. She knew when he needed to get more energy out and ran with him, handled him when he got too excited, and was patient in his moments of overwhelming excitement. I will 100% book Kat again in the future when I need someone to care for my dog.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. We had a family dog growing up who recently passed away :/ So trying to get my dog fix in. I’ve done other dog walking services in the past. I’m friendly, responsible, and reliable I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I’m around for last minute drop off requests when ever needed. I can go for walks during the day whenever is needed for the dog as well I live in a 1 bedroom apartment so the pup will have plenty of space to play. I don’t have any other pets. I don’t smoke

About: I've been surrounded by animals my whole life and have owned six dogs of all sizes, from energetic little pups to big lovable seniors, as well as five cats with very different personalities. There were a few years I owned 3 cats and 3 dogs at once so I am very used to managing multiple pets and personalities! Whether it’s going on long walks, playing fetch, giving meds, or just curling up for a cuddle, I truly enjoy building a bond with every pet I meet. I treat every animal like my own and understand how important it is to provide care that is not only reliable but also loving and tailored to each pet’s needs. I'm currently a Kindergarten teacher with availability on weekends for drop-ins, visits, or house sitting. Once summer begins, my schedule opens up completely, and I’ll have wide open availability to provide consistent, attentive care for your pets. I focus on maintaining each pet’s routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. I follow all care instructions closely, whether that is feeding schedules, administering medications, litter box cleaning, or just spending quality time with your pet through play or quiet companionship. I am respectful of your home and aim to leave things just as I found them, if not better.

“Very patient and kind toward my puppy. Able to walk my dog at late hours also, which I appreciated. Great communication and always sent photos during walks.”

About: I offer a unique blend of scientific precision and deep compassion for your pets. For two years, I fostered shy and anxious dogs for the Helen Woodward Animal Center (HWAC). Getting accepted into their program required passing a rigorous vetting process, including interviews, home visits, and specialized training. Through HWAC, I gained extensive experience caring for rescues with complex medical and behavioral needs, including parasites, severe dental issues, and anxiety. I also provided essential behavior and obedience training to help these dogs thrive. Before fostering dogs, I was the proud owner of a diabetic cat for five years. I am completely comfortable with advanced medical care, including tracking blood glucose with a glucometer, administering subcutaneous insulin injections twice daily, and giving oral medications. My background as a scientist allows me to communicate clearly and effectively with veterinarians and clinic staff, ensuring your pet's medical instructions are followed perfectly. Because I currently have no pets of my own and am taking a hiatus from work, I have total availability. I look forward to devoting 100% of my time, skills, and love to your companion here in the San Diego area! 24/7 Flexible Availability (Evenings & Weekends Included) Because I am currently on a professional hiatus, your pet becomes my primary focus. I have complete schedule flexibility to accommodate your exact routine, including early mornings, late evenings, weekends, and holidays. Unlike sitters juggling a traditional 9-to-5, I am available for mid-day medical checks, precise feeding times, and extended companionship. Whether you need standard drop-ins or a dedicated presence to ease an anxious pet's separation anxiety, my open schedule allows me to be there whenever you or your pet need me most. Specialized In-Home Care for Your Pet's Comfort I provide premium, attentive care exclusively inside your pet's own home, where they already feel safest and most comfortable. Because I live in a yard-free condominium, I choose not to offer boarding. Instead, I bring my extensive medical and behavioral experience directly to your doorstep. This setup ensures your pet’s routine remains completely uninterrupted, eliminating the stress of a new environment. Whether your cat requires precise, timely insulin injections or your dog needs a patient, structured potty schedule, I adapt entirely to your home's setup. Your pet gets 100% of my focus in the environment they love best, giving you total peace of mind while you are away.

“Shelly was amazing! She came to meet Joey and Blue right away and they immediately fell in love with her! Shelly kept me posted with messages and pictures! I did not worry one moment about my pups my entire vacation:)”

About: I have grown up with pets in my family and have responsibly cared for dogs and rabbits. I am responsive and take commitments seriously. I think I would be an excellent pet sitter. I currently work part time at UTC, and attend UCSD as a full time student. I am available in the mornings/evenings as well as weekends. I am very flexible. I will be very respectful of the clients house should I find myself staying there with the dog. I am unable to house since I reside in an on campus apartment.

“Lisa was great with my dog! She always gave me updates and was attentive. Definitely booking with her again when I need a dog walker!”

About: I’ve grown up with my childhood dog for the past 15 years. She is quite honestly the light of my life and brings me so much joy. I have learned so much from her and would love to get to know your pet as well. I love getting to know different animals and their quirks and finding out what makes them the happiest! I have a very flexible work schedule which will allow me to spend time with your animal at whatever time is best for them! I am new to San Diego and see this as an opportunity to get to know the area better! I am home for most of the day, which means I am available to your animal whenever they need it. Depending on their routine, we can walk as often as every hour or a couple times a day.
